With an arable cropping area 1027 Ha - 2537Ac - Melton & Joe's is located 25km east of Corrigin on the Corrigin Bendering Road set high on the landscape with mild undulating terrain and no salt. It has a variety of clay loam, medium loam and gravel loam soils defined by the original vegetation of Gimlet, York gum, Salmon gum, Mallee and Tammar.
The property has been with the one family since 1961 and has been meticulously managed on a conservative cereal/canola cropping to pasture ratio of 60:40. A top quality merino flock has been an integral part of the enterprise taking advantage of long established clovers including Caliph, Serena, Cyprus, Dalkeith, Nungarin and Geraldton.
Scheme water is a great asset being connected to 1 x 9,000L, 6 x 4,500L and 1 x 22,500L tanks servicing sixteen concrete/ fibre glass troughs. There are also four dams ranging in size from 1500 - 4,000 cubic yards all with roaded catchments.
The infrastructure is outstanding including a subdivision of 19 paddocks with quality fences, two machinery sheds, one 40m x 12m x 6m new Eco Shelter, fertiliser shed, 14,720 bu of elevated grain storage silos and Wake & Beacham sheep yards. Although an old style shearing shed has been decommissioned it could be reinstated with some renovation.
To complete the package there is a beautifully maintained three bedroom home including open living kitchen dining room, formal lounge, office, patio pergola and colorbond double garage. Features include ducted evaporative air conditioning and polished Jarrah floor boards to all bedrooms. The view is spectacular.
Properties of this caliber are a rarity in any wheat belt location. If this is in your price range make sure it is on the top of your list.
